@toosweetfigs where did you get those from? I've got the BBTS pre-orders, but according to that Eliza should be coming before Armored Xanatos.
A local shop in Kentucky.
I got the "processing soon" on Armored Xanatos from BBTS, so he's on the way. I don't have anything else preordered there except Lexington.
I ran into Angela at Target last week so I grabbed her since I consider her an essential part of the Manhattan Clan. I definitely find that with each figure I get in this line I enjoy it less. Despite sharing parts with Demona, I'm finding Angela to be a real pain to stand. Her hair also basically locks her head down so posing her is quite limited. The wings are the wings, I think we've beaten that horse beyond death, and I'm mostly collecting to fill out the roster I want and less for the enjoyment of it, which sucks. I just hope I'm content with the finished display at this point or else I will have wasted a considerable sum of money buying all of this.
Feel pretty much the same. I suppose I'll get Lex, but I'm pretty much resigned to skipping Elisa, Xanatos(es) and Angela. My Brooklyn has a broken wing, Demona can't stand (even with the assistance of an action figure stand) and all of them are looking down because of their hair helmets. Had I known at the beginning, I think I would have just bought Hudson and Bronx. They're gorgeous figures, but they're ridiculously impractical and everyone has issues.
None of my wings are broken, my Demona's been standing fine since I put her on the shelf, and I think the Steel Clans may be my favorite figures yet. Guess we're having different experiences with this line. 🙂
Only issues I've encountered so far are with one of Demona's wings. It was too loose right from the start and wouldn't stay up. I ended up using clear nail polish on it and it's been fine.
I got the processing email for armored Xanatos as well. He'll probably be staying in the box for a little while, though.
Strange armored Xanatos is leapfrogging over suit Xanatos. Wonder what’s going on there. I know many have been lackluster about suit Xanatos but he’s literally a figure I’ve wanted since the show started. Even got the Kenner Shadow car repaint for the Two-face body Xanatos it came with because it was the closest thing to Xanatos’ normal suit look at the time. The steel clan armor is fun and still a must have but his normal look has been a long term want for me. I’ve waited this long, what’s a few more months?
I got regular Xanatos this past Friday and love him.
My LCS has Lexington listed as being in stock this week, so I'm going to hit them up on Wednesday to see if he actually came in.

That would be great if Lex starts showing up. It would be nice to have the core clan completed.
After that I just want to get Hudson's folded wings. He is who I think of most when it comes to the cloak wings. I'll certainly welcome McBeth and anyone else, but they would all just be a bonus at this point
No luck with Lexington today. Looks like he was delayed to at least possibly next week. They checked with the warehouse to make sure he wasn't there, and no luck.
Hearing rumors that sadly the line isn't doing too great. If you find the human characters, snatch them up, because apparently, they're going to be VERY hard to find.
Also hearing Walmart will no longer be carrying the line...

That's a shame! What's the source?

People who know people. Sorry, wish I could say more, but don't want to get anyone into any trouble.
I know that sounds dumb, but...
In any case, just the rumors I'm hearing. Could end up being total bullshit.

Hear any rumors about their The Thing line? That's the one I'm worried about right now. Sorry to be a bother.

No worries at all. No, actually. Have heard not a peep about that other than the version 4 MacReady and Dog Alien. If anything, I would say if we see nothing by the end of this month at Toy Fair, it's safe to say the line is finished there.

In my heart I always have known the amount of tooling needed to do that line right was going to be an obstacle, but I fear you may be correct in your assessment. I wonder if Toy Fair or NYCC will be their focus as far as bigger reveals go this year, since they're so close together. Anyways, thanks for the input and I'll not distract from the main topic here any further!
